We'll end up numb from playing video games And we'll get sick of having sex And we'll get fat from eating candy As we drink ourselves to death We'll stay up late making mixtapes Photoshopping pictures of ourselves While we masturbate to these pixelated videos Of strangers fucking themselves We are very busy people We are very busy people There's crusty socks and stacks of pizza boxes Making trails straight to the bed And when we're done sleeping, we'll stay busy dreaming Of the things we don't have yet Well, there's a long, long list of chores And shit to do before we play Oh, let's just piss away the day Crank-call the cops down at the station Just for friendly conversation Requesting songs they never play Let's hear the one that goes like: We are very busy people We are very busy people But we've always got time for new friends So come on over and knock on our door It's open; what ya waiting for? We might be sprawled out on the floor But we still make lovely company Pull up a chair; I'll pour some tea We'll shoot the shit 'bout everything Till you get sick of politics and flip on the TV screen We stare at the TV screen That Donnie Darko DVD has been repeating for a week And we know every single word I've got an iPod like a pirate ship I'll sail the seas with fifty thousand songs I've never heard All the best of them go Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la... We are very busy people We are very busy people But we've always got time for new friends Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la...
